Ion Lewis of Portland is Gift Donoi 0 __ Gifl Contains Rare Titles From Personal Library Of Architect W hidden Collection Also Sent as Loan A gift of 240 books, manuals magazines, photograph albums plans, plates, portfolios, etc., pre sented to the school of architec ture by Ion Lewis, retired archi tect of Portland, has been re ceived at the main library. As fast as the checking, accessioning and cataloguing can be taken care of, the collection is being trans ferred to the architectural library. “This is one of the most valu able gifts that has been received at the library for some consider able time,” said M. H. Douglas, librarian, commenting on the col lection. Writings Ancient The gift, which contains some Old volumes, written during the seventeenth century, is Mr. Lewis’ personal library and will be valu able for research work. “The act of his giving it,” said Ellis Lawrence, dean of the school, “is a manifestation of the interest Mr. Lewis has always felt toward the university.” Word Received The school has received word of the shipment of the Whidden li brary from William Whidden, also a Portland architect. This group is considerably larger and for the present is only being loaned to the university, Dean Lawrence said. It is expected, however, that this collection will also become the property of the university after certain matters of estate are clear ed up. Messrs. Whidden and Lewis, both very prominent architects, have been partners in business in Portland for more than 40 years. It was in their office that Dean Lawrence first began his career as a young architect.

"In compari son, last year the ’ employment amounted to $52,000. Three years! ago the university added the hous- I ing, and now I have a helper. I "I am still here in the Y, be-1 i cause I like to be in close contact i with our boys. I like this work much better than teaching; it is such a worthwhile service to those who need an opportunity of earn ing an education,” Mrs. Donnelly commented. The new students who come to school are “the best ever!” in Mrs. Donnelly’s eyes. She likes the freshmen and is greatly inter ested in their development. Mrs. Donnelly said that much of the success in student employ ment is due to the loyal support of the people of Eugene in pro viding work for the students. eftprfiQntf'Goav' THEATRE BuecNey family jmwoBft TODAY MONTE BLUE In Conquest Also Pathe Sound News and R.

Talking Novelty “HEADWORK” Tomorrow ‘IN OLD CALIFORNIA’ Gridgraph Speed Quickened by Use Of Radio Reports Game with Huskies ivill be Featured with Combined Transmitters _ Direct radio returns of the Ore gon-Washington football game in Seattle Saturday will be received at McArthur court and will be combined with the Order of the O gridgraph to be held during the game, according to Ronald "Doc” Robnett, assistant graduate manager. The radio returns will be amplified by a series of loud speakers owned by the university so that ail present will hear plainly. At the same time the gridgraph will be operated from the radio returns, showing the po sition of the ball on the field and keeping account of yardage, etc. The new arrangement has been contemplated by the Order of the O since the failure of the grid graph to keep up with the radio during the Stanford-Oregon game. "No more will the Paul Reveres of the gridgraph be able to gallop in and announce the score fifteen minutes ahead of time,” remarked Robnett, in commenting on the new plan.

After his lecture the question was thrown open for discussion. OREGON GRID CAPTAIN IS YOUTHFUL STAR (Continued from. Paae One) nicely underway has been—disas ter. George is from The Dalles. He was born in 1908. After playing two years for The Dalles high, he came down to Oregon in the fall of ’28 being what the coaches call a “find,” and how many coast teams have “found” that out! George has probably played his last for Oregon although we can scarcely realize it. It is mighty hard on him but it is the team that has lost the most, because—well it has lost Stadelman. Evelyn Shaner, Editor at the McDonald Beau Brummel was a devil witl: the ladies; Cleopatra was one with the men, but what's one devi: or even two compared with four especially if they be an acrobatic team in a circus daring all in every act? “4 Devils,” which makes its premiere today at the McDonald, is not only a most absorbing cir cus story with an unusual love plot; it Is Janet Gaynor's first talking vehicle long awaited by her vast army of admirers. * * * AT THE REX "Hold Your Man,” now at the Rex theatre, is a very amusing comedy of a young wife who wanted romance and got it a la carte in Paris; but when hubby tried the same stunt, well you know how these American women can fight for their men if need be. * * * AT THE COLONIAL Give John Gilbert a desert night and a beautiful girl and the result will be Romance in capital letters. In the Colonial attraction, “Desert Nights,” he has both. The desert scenes are captivating and the girl, Mary Nolan, a former Follies beauty, does not shirk her share of the love making. AT THE STATE One by one they go marching by. First we had “In Old Arizona." Now we have “In Old California.” State by state we may have them all yet. “In Old California” is a robust romance of the great south west, vibrant with adventure, romance, and Spanish fire. Special!
